What Is Partial Symmetry?
The concept of partial symmetry of 3d shapes is beyond the syllabus and scope of 6th-grade mathematics. However, we can discuss the symmetry of shapes and figures as follows.
Symmetrical shapes:
Something is symmetrical when it is the same on both sides.
A shape has symmetry if a dividing line (a mirror line) can be drawn on it, to show that both sides of the shape are exactly the same.
Symmetry:
When an image looks identical to the original image after the shape is being turned or flipped, then it is called symmetry. Symmetry is a mirror image. It is a balanced and proportionate similarity found in two halves of an object, that is, one-half is the mirror image of the other half.
Line of Symmetry:
The imaginary line or axis along which you fold a figure to obtain the symmetrical halves is called the line of symmetry. It basically divides an object into two mirror-image halves. The line of symmetry can be vertical, horizontal or diagonal. There may be one or more lines of symmetry.
